SUPER IMPORTANT INFORMATION!!!
Set Up Multi-Factor Authentication Before November 7!
Starting on November 7, all school staff will be required to log in with multi-factor authentication (MFA), meaning that when you log into a district computer or Classlink, you will be asked to verify your login either:
Via a phone call on a landline or cell phone
Via an app that you can download onto your smartphone
See these directions to learn more about how to set up the option of your choice. It will be easiest to set up your choice before November 7, when Multi-factor authentication will be turned on. Getting setup with Duo is not optional, it is required.
If you need assistance with getting setup with Duo, please schedule a time for me to come and help you out. I have been using Duo since the school year started, so I would be ready and able to help you out.
Chromebooks
When a student leaves Kennedy for another school in the district or outside of the district, I will collect that individual's device and check it in.
Please remember that devices are checked out to the individual, so please do not let other students use a person's device. If something happens, we don't want to charge the wrong individual for the damage the device received.
